Chapter 616: Chapter 616
Jing Qiao brought them tea and refreshnts.
Su Lu frowned and said, “Stop bustling around. Isn’t your leg still healing?”
Jing Qiao didn’t mind, “It’s fine. The doctor said I don’t need to be so careful. My bones have healed already. I just need to be careful not to strain the wound.”
“That’s good.” Su Lu helped her carry the items over.
After sitting down, Su Lu said, “Speaking of being pregnant, if the child isn’t Song Jining’s… it must be a few months along, right?”
“Based on when Big Brother and Xiao Caizi separated, it must be quite a few months,” Jing Qiao replied.
“It must be at least four months,” Bo Jingshen said. “She really can endure.”
Su Lu frowned at him, perhaps because she had also experienced sothing similar, alone and pregnant.
Therefore, she felt so empathy for Xiao Caizi and said, “Don’t forget, when Big Brother had his accident, she ca.”
Bo Jingshen was aware of the situation and had even witnessed it.
Xiao Caizi approached cautiously, which might have been the last ti she gathered her courage.
Looking back, Su Lu felt that at that ti, she had probably wanted to tell Jing Su about it but was pushed away by him.
At that ti, Jing Su, fearing he might be disabled, already felt insecure about their relationship, which only worsened.
Perhaps because of that, Xiao Caizi grew disheartened and never brought it up again.
Perhaps, if Bo Yuan hadn’t let the matter slip and told Jing Su, it may never have reached his ears.
Su Lu pursed her lips for a mont, whispering softly, “Back then, Xiao Caizi brought food every day, asking , or Jing Ruo, or the caretaker to give it to Big Brother. She made it daily until Big Brother was discharged. She did try.”
Bo Jingshen remained silent, sensing Su Lu’s emotions, understanding that she was empathizing because of her own past experiences.
This left Bo Jingshen without a place to speak in this matter.
Su Lu glanced at Bo Jingshen and continued, “It was Big Brother who pushed her away. Now that he knows she’s pregnant, he thinks it’s okay? Honestly, since she didn’t tell Big Brother in the end, it shows she weighed the risks and decided to handle it alone, believing she could bear it. Just like how I could bear it on my own back then.”
Bo Jingshen felt even more hesitant to speak, his eyes seeking help from the audience.
Among the audience, Bo Yuan was not good with words.
Jing Qiao quickly tried to diate, “Sister-in-law… let’s stick to the facts and not upset yourself.”
Su Lu took a deep breath and nodded, “You’re right. Anyway, what I an is that it’s ultimately your Big Brother, so it’s more appropriate for you to talk to him. About this matter, I, as soone who has been through it, advise him that if there’s no emotional attachnt, he shouldn’t interfere with her because of the child. It’s aningless. She can support the child on her own.”
Su Lu paused, then chuckled softly, the laughter lacking warmth, “Honestly, Big Brother can still have children with another woman in the future, right? It doesn’t have to be this one. If there’s no love, better to let Xiao Caizi go. She’s not had it easy, she’s tried everything.”
Hearing this, Bo Jingshen felt a bit fearful.
Though he always knew he was extrely lucky, so he could win her back after so much had happened.
But now, he profoundly realized that Su Lu was a person led by emotions.
She still had feelings for him, which gave him a chance.
If she truly let go, nothing he could do would matter.
She was soone who would never compromise just for the sake of giving her child a ho, would not wrong herself, would not force herself.
Su Lu lived with piercing clarity, acutely aware of how important a happy mother is for the growth of her children.
She always knew she was first a woman, and then a mother.
She was first herself.
She needed to live well for herself, to maintain her own health because that is how her child would be happy.
This was etched deep in Su Lu’s bones.
Her advice concerning Xiao Caizi was based on what she had learned from her own experiences.
Bo Jingshen quietly said, “I think… Jing Su also has feelings for Xiao Caizi. Maybe he’s just… cowardly?”
“Cowardly…” Su Lu gave him a sidelong glance, “I’ve noticed both you brothers are like this, afraid of what, I don’t know. Won aren’t even afraid, what are you afraid of?”
Bo Jingshen sighed and remained silent, glancing at Bo Yuan.
It seed Bo Yuan was the sa, very timid when facing soone he cared about, deeply afraid sothing might happen to her, and tried to protect her in what he thought was the best way, only to end up hurting her deeply.
Su Lu said, “It makes us won have to bear it. Qiaoqiao and I still had hope, but how do you know Xiao Caizi didn’t lose hope? In those last few days, there was no light left in her eyes. After Big Brother was discharged, she didn’t appear again.”
Bo Yuan quietly added, “She went abroad.”
“Abroad?” Jing Qiao exclaid.
Bo Yuan humd, “I didn’t ask for details, but if you want to know, I can ask Ji Ning again. I just know the gist—Ji Ning said she went abroad. Apparently, the Xiao Family has so project starting abroad, and they planned to have her lead it. Mainly because she is obedient. She married Ji Ning according to the family’s wishes, and she fought for that project, which the family also agreed to, as a reward.”
That explanation clearly ant she wasn’t planning to co back any ti soon, leaving the place that pained her.
Su Lu knew this sche all too well; she had just sent soone off recently. Yaxi was just like that.
But Yaxi’s case was because Gu Xin had passed away.
Xiao Caizi’s situation was different; she might have given up hope.
And that sa evening, they learned that Jing Su seed to be planning to go after her.
Su Lu said resignedly, “Why only do sothing now?”
Bo Jingshen had his phone in hand, the call not yet ended. Su Lu thought it was a call from a secretary since she heard soone ntion needing Bo Jingshen’s private plane.
But unexpectedly, it was Jing Su himself on the line, who fell silent imdiately.
Bo Jingshen, a bit embarrassed, simply said, “Jing Su, what took you so long?”
